Chapter 1174 Anti-tank gun was successfully developed
The official residence of the Governor of Hong Kong, Mai Sha is handling official business in his office.
Cauchy walked in, head bowed.
Mao Sha stared at Cauchy with a serious expression, and asked, "Why are you alone, Liu Yongfu?" ”
Cauchy replied, "Didn't bring it back!" ”
"Rubbish!!"
There was a loud bang, and he slapped it on the desk. He stood up angrily, stretched out his hand and pointed at Cauchy, and roared: "You brought more than 30 policemen to go, but you can't even bring back a small country man, do you do such a thing?" Dismissal, I'm going to remove you today, go back and reflect on yourself. ”
Cauchy hurriedly said: "Director, there is a reason for this!" ”
"What is the reason?" Maisha asked.
Cauchy hunched his back slightly and replied truthfully: "I brought people to see Liu Yongfu at that time, but I didn't expect Liu Yongfu to organize a force, which was all composed of villagers. These villagers were armed with sticks, fierce and vicious, and they all obeyed Liu Yongfu's command. As soon as we do it, Liu Yongfu will order the villagers to resist. ”
After finishing speaking, Cauchy relayed Liu Yongfu's words.
After hearing this, her brows furrowed tightly, and there was confusion in her eyes. He didn't expect that a little Liu Yongfu would have such insight, which is really unusual. He punched his right hand into a fist on the desk, but finally sat down. As Liu Yongfu said, the current sand does not dare to take risks. As soon as the troops stationed at the border are dispatched, he cannot afford the consequences.
However, the final result was not a sand decision. "This matter is here for the time being, and I will first go to His Excellency the Governor and report the news to the Governor, and it will be up to His Excellency the Governor to decide." ”
Cauchy nodded and exited the office in a proper manner. He also stood up and walked towards the office of Robinson, the governor of Hong Kong. This matter had to be discussed with Robinson to determine whether to take Liu Yongfu.
Outside the governor's office, there was a knock on the door.
Immediately, the sand entered it. After Ma Sha sat down, he relayed the incident of Liu Yongfu organizing the villagers to resist arrest and said; "Your Excellency the Governor, what do you think about Liu Yongfu?"
Governor Robinson put down the pen in his hand and said solemnly: "Stop acting!" ”
Mai Sha was stunned for a moment, a little incomprehensible. Doesn't stopping the action mean not provoking Liu Yongfu?
According to this decision, the government has relented.
Robinson sighed lightly and continued: "I have just received a telegram from His Excellency Gobard from Canton, saying that the situation is not in our favor, and asking us to keep a low profile during this time and not provoke Li Zhen's army. Liu Yongfu saw this and dared to make trouble during this time. Ignore Liu Yongfu for the time being, let him be arrogant. Wait for our tank to arrive and solve Li Zhen, and then come to clean up Liu Yongfu. A little villager, even if a little clever, is useless. ”
"Yes! I understand. ”
Mao Sha nodded, still a little unwilling in his heart.
Allowing Lau to stumble is certainly not a good thing for Hong Kong.
……
In the blink of an eye, twenty-five days have passed since the original January date. It's the end of April, and the weather in Guangzhou is already quite hot.
Outside the city, thirty miles!
This is a mountainous area, which belongs to the garrison of the army in Guangzhou, and at this time the surrounding area is under martial law, and the soldiers of the army are stationed everywhere, and the area is strictly controlled. On a hillside in the mountains, Li Zhen, Wang Xiaoyang, Huang Qiang, Dai Yuanhua and others all had anticipatory looks on their faces, looking at a cannon under the hillside.
This cannon is an anti-tank gun researched by Dai Yuanhua.
During this month, Li Zhen often went in and out of the arsenal to discuss the manufacture of anti-tank guns with Dai Yuanhua and experts from the arsenal, and in a short period of time, he produced shells to restrain tanks.
Dai Yuanhua stood on the slope and shouted: "Reload!" ”
At the sound of an order, the soldier standing next to the cannon picked up a spool-shaped armor-piercing bullet and loaded it.
In an instant, there was a loud bang.
A flash of fire flickered, and the armor-piercing projectile flew out, heading straight for an iron plate erected five hundred meters away. In the blink of an eye, a deafening sound sounded, followed by an explosion. After the firelight, everyone's eyes looked at each other. Because the distance was too far, they couldn't see it really, and the group walked towards the iron block.
The iron block was 10 centimeters thick, and the armor-piercing projectile penetrated about 30 millimeters when it hit the iron. Such a penetrating power has far exceeded the thickness of the tank's defenses. Although Li Zhen has never seen a British tank, he has just developed a tank, which definitely does not meet the standards of heavy tanks in later generations, and the thickness of the armor of the current tank is not enough.
30 mm of penetration, it is enough.
Li Zhen praised it, gave a thumbs up, and said, "Mr. Dai, you have made a great contribution this time. With such anti-tank guns, we will have more than enough to deal with British tanks. This time, let them come and go. ”
Huang Qiang said: "Gobard thought he had hidden the president, but he didn't know that he had already been exposed. ”
Wang Xiaoyang smiled and said, "In a few days, it will be the scheduled period of January." ”
Li Zhen nodded, and said heroically: "The anti-tank gun has been developed, and now everything is ready, just wait for news from Gobard." After a pause, Li Zhen's eyes fell on Dai Yuanhua, and said solemnly: "Mr. Dai, the shells have been produced, and the next thing is up to you." It is imperative to produce a large number of anti-tank guns in the shortest possible time to ensure the smooth running of this war. ”
Dai Yuanhua raised his hand and gave a military salute, and replied loudly: "Please rest assured, the president, now that the final anti-tank gun situation has been determined, everything will be easy." Next, the production of the assembly line will be completed soon. ”
After the experiment was completed, the scene was dealt with, and the group returned the same way.
……
The month of January is just around the corner.
At this time, it was already May 2nd. Early in the morning, Li Zhen got up and washed up and came to the office. Li Zhen simply arranged the things that needed to be dealt with today, and then called the soldiers, ready to send someone to inform Gobard, and at this time, the soldiers actually came to report that Gobard had taken the initiative to come. When Li Zhen heard this, his face suddenly became happy.
It's finally come to this point, and it's the turn of the final confrontation.
Li Zhen waved his hand and said, "Please!" ”
Gobard came to Li Zhen's office, saluted, sat down, and said aloud: "President Li, I have received a reply from Her Majesty. Her Majesty was furious when she learned that you were going to take back Hong Kong, and said that since Hong Kong was ceded by the Manchu Emperor, it no longer belonged to China, but to Britain. So I can only say sorry to you. ”
Li Zhen said lightly: "In that case, are you ready to go to war?" ”
Gobard said, "There will be a battle!" ”
After a pause, Gobard said, "Since the two sides are at war, and I, as the British envoy, am still under the control of President Lee. If His Excellency the President wants to execute me, he is fully capable. It's all up to President Lee to decide. ”
Li Zhen laughed and said: "The two countries will not kill each other, since you are the British envoy, I will not kill you." Go back and tell the Governor of Hong Kong, Robinson, that my Li Zhen's army will soon leave for Hong Kong. ”
Gobard got up to say goodbye and turned to leave.
Li Zhen looked at Gobard's departing back and smiled coldly, he knew that this was a British-made tank that arrived in Hong Kong, so Gobard dared to show his attitude.
Britain is ready, why not he, Li Zhen?
